Our kids played hard, ... The ball just didn't bounce our way this week. We had some things happen that just kill you in a close ball game.

We worked our offense to get some mismatches inside, and Kendra did a good job taking the ball to the basket.

Both teams made mistakes. Both teams played very hard and at the end, the ball didn't bounce our way.

The only way a team can move the ball on us is if we make mistakes. We realize that so far.

We sunk ourselves in the first half. Offensively, we weren't protecting the ball very well. We weren't countering our defensive stops with anything offensive.

We threw the ball around a lot and we lost, and then it was a question of whether we can pass the ball and win. As a receiver, that's not a question you want floating around.

He throws the breaking ball and the secondary pitches for strikes. Having said that, we probably need to polish up the command of those secondary pitches.

At this point, I'm really not going to worry about it. The only thing I can do is go out and hit the ball and catch the ball and throw the ball. If something happens, it happens. I'll pack up and go.

I signed a two-year deal here and got hurt the first year. I beat myself up all the time for that, because I'm obligated to this organization and this city to help us win ball games.
